The best worst thing I’ve ever read. No idea how they pulled that off for so long.

Reminds me of a firm I worked for. They decided to adopt Google Drive for the team of about 20 employees.

Every couple weeks an employee would mistake the synced folder for their local disk and rearrange files or delete files and then the files would disappear for the rest of the company.

Then we’d have to go into the backups and restore the files and send a message out to everyone to hold the files they were working on before saving them to the drive again.

How come? Google Drive has fairly granular access control access control.
